Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ultimate Gin at none against Rock Slide's 2. Ultimate Gin also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Rock Slide's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 4) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 26.4). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
